Peter Robinson, leader of the majority pro-British Democratic Unionist Party and the government’s first minister resigned in 2015. This made the multiparty executive branch obsolete since it could not function if either of the two largest parties refused to participate. The controversy arose after Kevin McGuigan was murdered and members of the police claimed that the IRA was still active.

Opponents argue that the murder of Mr. McGuigan proves that there is too much unrest to build a power-sharing government right now. See recent Northern Ireland news
